In the spacious guest hall, Zhao Wannian was invited to sit in the place of honor, followed by the two accompanying elders from Qingtian Sect, Gong Haichao and Qin Sizhong, who took their seats in order.
The host, Helian Bo, sat to the left of Zhao Wannian, with Helian Zhan right beside his father.
Although other members of the Helian Family were of higher seniority than Helian Rong, they did not take seats. Instead, Helian Rong was arranged to sit next to Helian Zhan.
It's true that Zhao Wannian had given enough face to Helian Bo, but surely the Helian Family should also know their place, shouldn't they?
If not for Helian Zhan, the people from the Helian Family would be nothing more than minions in front of these big shots from Qingtian Sect. It was already a great honor for Helian Bo to be seated on an equal footing with them.
